I would try re-installing the modem drivers. If that doesnt work try a different modem cable.

Also it could be someone picking up the phone on the other line

or somebody could be calling that number and causing the disconnect. Or the server your dialed into has something wrong with it and it is disconnecting you after 5 min. Or it could be your phone lines. There are a number of possibilities that could be the problem.
